There are so many but some include
Lasers ( especially ultrashort pulsed lasers)
CRISPR could be great invention in genetics if used properly
Komodo dragon blood based antibiotics to which bacteria are not resistant too
Algorithms used to create new proteins.
And artificial intelligence that uses musical scores to design new proteins might be a good idea.
Nanocellulose
Graphine

O sorry I didn't realize that you had to put 66 inventions. There were so many I can't really answer which were most important
I think the ones I mentioned are important inventions of past 66 years but to name 66 of them which are of greater importance or are more revolutionary from hundreds if not thousands of them is beyond my scope.
